I have such a great butcher.. only... I have problems finding fatty cuts of meat!! They have no fatty cuts of beef. (at least when I asked at the counter in my pathetic German) I couldn't believe it. Will have to bring the husband along (the real German speaker) to see if we can order something. I miss things like rib eye, prime rib, skirt steak etc. I also miss beef for 1.99 per pound hahaha I'll never find that here! I prefer beef and lamb meat to be my staple and don't want to have to add fat from other sources (ie: lard) especially if the animal was grassfed, plus it just tastes so good...

Binki - there are several online free translators, the Jiffy German phrasebook is good too. I find a lot of what I say doesnot have to be perfect or 100% accurate, I just mention that I only speak a bit of German and they listen carefully and I slowly try to get my point across using key words, if I can't actually say the sentence properly. Most people understand eventually and they all appreciate the effort even though they probably speak English. You'll find a LOT of English speaking Germans, especially young people. I've been interrupted in my halting Germany many times by fluent Eglish speakers :)

Hi Binki!

Congretulation for getting tickets. :wave:

You should not have problems to find something appropriate to drink. They sell mineral water (Wasser) and diet coke (Cola light) for sure.
But to be true, I don't think they will sell diet red bull, which is not very common.... :tears:

How many matches are you going to see? And where?
